Highly reliable and selective ethanol sensor based on α-Fe2O3 nanorhombs working in realistic environments

A highly reliable and selective ethanol gas sensor working in realistic environments based on alpha-Fe2O3(α-Fe2O3)nanorhombs is developed. The sensor is fabricated by integrating α-Fe2O3 nanorhombs onto a low power microheater based on micro-electro-mechanical systems(MEMS) technology. The α-Fe2O3 nanorhombs, prepared via a solvothermal method, is characterized by transmission electron microscopy(TEM), Raman spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction(XRD), and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The sensing performances of the α-Fe2O3 sensor to various toxic gases are investigated. The optimum sensing temperature is found to be about 280℃. The sensor shows excellent selectivity to ethanol.For various ethanol concentrations(1 ppm-20 ppm), the response and recovery times are around 3 s and 15 s at the working temperature of 280℃, respectively. Specifically, the α-Fe2O3 sensor exhibits a response shift less than 6% to ethanol at280℃ when the relative humidity(RH) increases from 30% to 70%. The good tolerance to humidity variation makes the sensor suitable for reliable applications in Internet of Things(IoT) in realistic environments. In addition, the sensor shows great long-term repeatability and stability towards ethanol. A possible gas sensing mechanism is proposed.

The Realistic Dilemma and Countermeasures of Anti-poverty Industrial-capacity Cooperation Between China and Africa

Poverty eradication is an important goal of African social development.China has always attached great importance to exchanges and cooperation with African countries in the field of poverty reduction and with the deepening of the practice and understanding of China-Africa anti-poverty cooperation,industrial-capacity cooperation has become a new theme of poverty reduction and development in China-Africa cooperation at the 2016 Forum on China Africa Cooperation(FOCAC)—Africa-China Poverty Reduction and Development Conference.Through combing and analysis of relevant literature and data,we found that China-Africa industrial-capacity cooperation,which is based on infrastructure construction,industrial park construction and trade exchanges,has played an important role in poverty reduction and development in African countries by facilitating industrialization and agricultural modernization,enhancing endogenous motivation for poverty alleviation,and improving the sustainable livelihood of poor people.At present,in the practice of anti-poverty industrial-capacity cooperation between China and Africa,there are still difficulties such as weak anti-poverty foundation and cooperation paths yet to be optimized.Meanwhile,it is also faced with a series of risks and challenges such as intensified international competition.In order to improve the cooperation between China and Africa,promote anti-poverty benefits,optimize the implementation paths,and better solve the dilemma of cooperation,we put forward relevant countermeasures and suggestions from the four dimensions of government,enterprises,think tanks and people.

A Realistic Model for Observing Spin-Balanced Fulde-Ferrell Superfluid in Honeycomb Lattices

The combination of spin-orbit coupling （SOC） and in-plane Zeeman field breaks time-reversal and inversion symmetries of Fermi gases and becomes a popular way to produce single plane wave Fulde-Ferrell （FF） superfluid. However, atom loss and heating related to SOC have impeded the successful observation of FF state until now. In this work, we propose the realization of spin-balanced FF superfluid in a honeycomb lattice without SOC and the Zeeman field. A key ingredient of our scheme is generating complex hopping terms in original honeycomb lattices by periodical driving. In our model the ground state is always the FF state, thus the experimental observation has no need of fine tuning. The other advantages of our scheme are its simplicity and feasibility, and thus may open a new route for observing FF superfluids.

Repairing the injured spinal cord: sprouting versus regeneration. Is this a realistic match?

The article by Meves and Zheng （2014） is addressing a continu- ous shift in the field of spinal cord injury （SCI） research that has occurred over the last century. Before that, the spinal cord was viewed as ＂hard wired＂ and treatment considerations were based on observations that axons in the periphery were able to regenerate, but those in the central nervous system （CNS） were not （David and Aguayo, 1981）.

Tensor based non-photo realistic rendering for Korean architectural images

Existing pen and ink sketch technologies can be applied to general images, but they could not produce optimal output for images of traditional architecture, because most images consist of exquisite straight lined patterns in traditional architecture, such as root tiles and window bars. The lines of roofs and eaves need to be described delicately to express pen and ink sketch most effectively. Therefore, by proposing a method to create white noise for light and shade of input images, to extract input vector directions from the white noise, and to determine the direction and length of stroke, a new expression technique is proposed for pen and ink sketch that could best reflect the characteristics of traditional architecture.

Comparison between Equivalent Charge Model and Equivalent Dipole Model on Realistic Head Model

Equivalent source layer （ESL） imaging is an important kind of high-resolution electro- encephalogram （EEG） imaging. It consists of two categories： equivalent dipole layer （EDL） and equivalent charge layer （ECL）. Both of them are assumed to be located on or near the cortical surface and have been proposed as high-resolution imaging modalities or as intermediate steps to estimate the epicortical potential. Here, EDL and ECL based on a realistic head model are presented, both simulations and real data experiment are done to compare these two models. The results show that ECL can provide higher spatial resolution about source location than EDL does.

The Realistic Dilemma and Promoting Path of Secondary Vocational Education Talent Training Model under the Background of Education Supply-side Reform

In today's world,the competition for high-end smart technology is becoming increasingly fierce,and the huge connotation hidden behind the fierce competition is the competition of high-quality skilled talents.The status of secondary vocational education in our country's education system has a solid foundational role.The close connection it exhibits with social and economic development is beyond the reach of other types of education.However,the current secondary vocational education talent training model shows a situation that is not in line with market demand,and problems such as"shortage of skilled personnel"and"unemployment structural imbalance"have appeared in related fields.The supply of talents in secondary vocational education lacks a balanced mechanism,lacks in quality of supply,and does not have a high effect.It is urgent to train high-quality skilled talents with matching socio-economic structure transformation and upgrading for the society through education supply-side reform measures.In view of this,according to the changes in market demand,we will vigorously promote the reform of the school-based curriculum of secondary vocational schools,strive to create a new integrated development model that combines textbooks and practice,promote in-depth exchanges and cooperation between schools and characteristic enterprises in the industry,and train people in practice.Cultivating people,creating a good atmosphere for cultivating technical talents,and combining with the new goal of practicing education to build an evaluation system suitable for the growth of secondary vocational talents,making the human resource structure more and more suitable for the transformation and upgrading of the current social industrial structure.

Theoretical efficiency limit and realistic losses of indoor organic and perovskite photovoltaics [Invited]

Indoor organic and perovskite photovoltaics(PVs)have been attracting great interest in recent years.The theoretical limit of indoor PVs has been calculated based on the detailed balance method developed by Shockley–Queisser.However,realistic losses of the organic and perovskite PVs under indoor illumination are to be understood for further efficiency improvement.In this work,the efficiency limit of indoor PVs is calculated to 55.33%under indoor illumination(2700 K,1000 lux)when the bandgap(E_(g))of the semiconductor is 1.77 eV.The efficiency limit was obtained on the basis of assuming 100%photovoltaic external quantum efficiency(EQ_(EPV))when E≥E_(g),there was no nonradiative recombination,and there were no resistance losses.In reality,the maximum EQEPV reported in the literature is 0.80–0.90.The proportion of radiative recombination in realistic devices is only 10^(−5)–10^(−2),which causes the open-circuit voltage loss(ΔV_(loss))of 0.12–0.3 V.The fill factor(FF)of the indoor PVs is sensitive to the shunt resistance(R_(sh)).The realistic losses of EQE_(PV),nonradiative recombination,and resistance cause the large efficiency gap between the realistic values(excellent perovskite indoor PV,32.4%;superior organic indoor PV,30.2%)and the theoretical limit of 55.33%.In reality,it is feasible to reach the efficiency of 47.4%at 1.77 eV for organic and perovskite photovoltaics under indoor light(1000 lux,2700 K)with V_(OC)=1.299 V,J_(SC)=125.33μA/cm^(2),and FF=0.903 when EQE_(PV)=0.9,EQE_(EL)=10^(−1),R_(s)=0.5Ωcm^(2),and R_(sh)=10^(4) kΩcm^(2).
